How much do you charge for your foundation repair or waterproofing services?

When our trained technician comes to your home we will provide a complete analysis and honest evaluation. If repairs are needed, we will provide a cost-effective solution designed uniquely for your home. If repairs by Helitech are not needed, we will gladly refer you to the proper home maintenance solution.

How soon can you be out to fix my problem?

We get this question quite frequently and do not have a definitive answer as it varies. However, we can firmly say that once all contracts are signed and your deposit has been made, paperwork can take 7-10 business days to circulate to the scheduling department. However, in the event of an emergency situation, priority is given to special instances. If you are in an emergency situation, call us at 800-246-9721 and we can work with you as necessary.
